In the Kingdom of God, each person’s destiny is the playing out of that person’s unique identity as a son of God, regardless of gender, race, or background. To embrace one’s... More > identity as a son, one must change his prevailing culture.
In this season, God is building His House in the earth, with the relationship of fathers and sons as its foundation. Effecting cultural changes requires a trans-generational effort, in which a change in the culture is but one of the first steps of a long journey to reestablish, fully, the House of God. This journey is meant to reposition man in the relationship with God as Father, as God intended from the beginning. The purpose of repositioning humankind as sons and heirs to God is to establish the family of God on the earth and to display the love of God, through his sons, to all of creation. Whereas the destiny of each son of God is vitally important, the entire purpose of God can only, ultimately, be accomplished through the corporate form—the House of God.< Less

In this book there is a collection of my reflections.
I have captured my life journey in bits since the age of twelve,
from a child reaching out to my parents to now as a parent reaching out to
the... More > kids.
My journey, one of irony, poignient and mouldingness of living.
Building and tearing down of the soul, the heart and the mind; shattering,
altering of life’s course, steering the journey idlelessly through the forest
of the modern and the urban life.
One’s life carrying the burden of culture, values and exprerience of change
of “no choice intergration” of the society we live in that rolls the wheels of
revolution of kaleidoscopic social fusion of that identity,
position and values as one grows.
“Father to Child captures some aspect of this”.< Less
